A couple of minutes at the start of the FA Cup final encapsulated Ilkay Gundogan's status at Manchester City.
Stood on the Wembley pitch before kickoff against Manchester United, he gathered his teammates into a huddle for a few final words of encouragement, only for Ruben Dias -- a louder, more animated leader -- to step in and deliver his own speech. It might have annoyed another captain, but not Gundogan. Twelve seconds into the game and he was back on centre stage, having scored the fastest goal ever in an FA Cup final with a perfectly judged right-foot volley.
